We are looking for educators to participate in a study to help us develop the Teacher Help: Classroom Management professional development program.

Potential participants must work within the Canadian school system as a classroom

teacher, a specialized teacher (e.g., special education teacher, school counselor), an

administrator (e.g., principal, vice-principal), behaviour specialist, or school psychologist and be responsible for, or give advice about, in-class behaviour management.

Participants in this study are asked to complete a telephone interview (20-30 min) with a researcher and respond to an online survey (10-15 min).

Participation is entirely voluntary and will take approximately 30-45 minutes. Participating will help us to optimize a new module for the Teacher Help program that will focus on providing professional development to teachers on the classroom management of disruptive behaviour.

In appreciation for participation, participants will be entered in a draw to receive a $50 Amazon gift card and will be given the opportunity to review the Teacher Help: Classroom Management program.
